You called to say you were hanging by a thread
and when it broke you woke half conscious,
wishing you were dead
Your voice was half asleep
floating in a haze
I heard the disappointment cracking your glaze
All the voices in your head
Are they still there?
Or are you left alone hanging in mid air?
Did you cry when he touched you
All those years ago
Do you cry when you think of it
Or hide it far below
“Lukewarm,
Hear me now
You’ve worn me out
Worn me down
Everything’s so faded, wish I was six feet underground
Lukewarm
Let me out before it’s too late”
I had a dream, you were dying
You let me know you were safe
for now, you’re on the shore
but it may be too late
Didn’t want to be a burden
but couldn’t live without the night
I wanna step towards you now,
hand you the light
All the voices in your head
Are they still there?
Or have they left you, drifting through the air?
Did you cry when he touched you
All those years ago
Do you cry when you think of it
Or hide it far below
“Lukewarm,
Hear me now
You’ve worn me out
Worn me down
Everything’s so faded, wish I was six feet underground
Lukewarm
Let me out before I leave no sound
no sound
Wish I was six feet underground
Lukewarm
Let me out before it’s too late”
